[Game Thread] Lord Windos’ PokeRole Adventure 2: The Wild Lands

[Redstone]

*Welp, better get going. It wouldn't be wise to go against her wishes immediately. He looks around the area, checking for the shortest part of the fence?/wall? and walking towards it, taking Kayla's pokeball into his hand.* 

"Come out girl, looks like I needed ya a bit earlier then expected."

*Surely climbing over would be a breeze with the tallest horse he knows as makeshift stairs. And even if it's not he had another idea.*

Indeed - the last fool that directly disobeyed one of their Orders unintentionally served as an enduring lesson to do as your told for untold generations of your people.

Kayla gives you a half-lidded look before moseying over to the wall, where you quickly hop up and make your way over and the recall them. Easy, right?

*Rolls* Oooh...!

....And find yourself in an overgrown garden, complete with a babbling brook and wild flowers festooning the lands. Turning back, you find that the wall is suddenly *gone* , a thick mass of woody vines, trees, and brush obscuring where you once came from. Directly in front of you is a path, leading deeper and deeper into this hidden beauty...

Of to the side, you see a Old Fountain, an Statue of a Dratini coiled up in it. Clean, crisp water is in the basin - just enough to fill a Bottle of Fresh Water for the road ahead.

Spoiler

Seddi raises an eyebrow.  Fastest and slickest, huh?  Best keep an eye on his pokeballs and pack, just in case...

For now though, the fellow seems nice enough, so Seddi will shake the groovy stranger's hand.  The cowboy's gloved grip is firm.

"Name's Seddi.  So we're near Bayahama?  That's where I need to be goin', so that works out I suppose.  Let's walk and talk if you don't mind.  No sense hanging around here if it's dangerous, and I've got someone I need to be meetin' back up with.  Could use some directions."

On that note, Seddi pulls out his Rotom Phone, checking if there's any recent messages from the Professor.  If she'd been trying to call him, he hadn't noticed yet, but he has no doubt that she'd be trying to contact him and figure out what the heck just happened.  Thankfully, his phone hadn't been fried by supernatural phenomena this time, so getting back in touch with her shouldn't be the most difficult thing in the world.  Once he's confirmed he's in a safe enough location to make a call uninterrupted, that is.

In the meantime, while they're making their way back to the city...

"So what makes that beach so dangerous if the Sutalöran 'jellies' aren't the primary problem?  Can't say it looks like a very interesting beach at a glance."

Dodger takes one look at you and bursts out in laughter, slapping himself on the knee!

"Bwahahaha! Not that kind of slick, partner! I just know how to Hustle and bustle the most, and make 'bout any situation my jam, ya dig?"

The dandy man ethusiastically shakes yours in turn, his grip every bit as formidable as your own. 

"Nice to me ya! Yeah, we are, 'bout a couple hours out from the city limits. *Smirks* If you stick with me, though, I can get ya back their quickier than a Dodrio after its next meal! *Shrugs, crosses hands behind his head* Still, I don't mind getting to know ya first - not everyday I see somebody pop out of the middle of nowhere, and a real roughie and toughie at that, he!"

You two pair up, walk side by side as you make your away from the beach and deeping into the Region itself. Dodger doesn't interupt you as you poke around your R.P. , only giving it a quick glance before noding and looking away, whistle a catchy tune all the while. Checking the messages....yup, you got some - One from the Professor tht basically said 'Where are you? What happened? Report in immediately' , and one from the Sutalorian Embassy, stating that they fully processed his visa and is ready to hand over all documents and items necessary for him to conduct his research in an official capacity. Your Mentor didn't send anything yet - maybe the Professor hadn't raised the alarms yet?

Once you were done with that and started some small talk, Dodger looked back and raised an eyebrow at you, before chuckling.

"He, yup, you're a Rissy alright. That's slang for 'Tourist' by the way - don't let it get under ya skin, most Sutalorians just like to rib ya lot a little. Anyway, why is this beach dangerous? Cause while the Jellies no longer call this place home, and looks rather plain at first glance, that don't mean the beach misses out on the goings of other menaces. Not too uncommon to spot a Wandering Hurricane 'round here - some think they claimed this area as a part of its territory, FYI - Sharpedo and Tubareel infest these waters and aren't afraid to chase after people on dry land, Giant Trapinch hidden pits and sneaky blood sucking Sand Crawlers lurking all about the place...and much more feisty beasties. Reason why Bayhama never bother to settle anything all the way out here, partner. Honesty, you're pretty lucky nothing decide to Pounce on ya and start chewing away like you're a Rage Candy Bar - or the locals didn't catch wind of ya 'fore I did. Lucky either way, eh?"
